Seeing the confusion in Roxanne’s eyes. Aurora couldn’t help but grit her teeth. She hadn’t expected Maxim to not even inform his own sister, let alone how little he must care about her, his fiancée!
She managed to maintain a smile and said. “Perhaps he has been too busy lately, so he hasn’t had the chance to tell you. I just went to see him and found out that you had returned to the country, so I took the liberty to come and see you.”
A glint of amusement flashed in Roxanne’s eyes, “So that’s how it is. Since you’re my brother’s fiancée, that makes you my future sister–in- law. Nice to meet you, sister–in–law!”
This shout to Aurora made sister–in–law feel thoroughly refreshed, and her gaze towards Roxanne became much more sincere.
“Roxanne, did you come to buy clothes? Alone?”
Roxanne nodded, “Yeah, I just returned to the country and didn’t know anyone, so I had to explore on my own.”
“If you don’t mind, I can accompany you for shopping. I’m pretty good at matching clothes.”
Roxanne squinted her eyes and smiled, “Alright, then I’ll have to trouble you, sister–in–law.”
The two of them had been shopping for over three hours, and when they finally came out of the mall, they were both carrying shopping bags of all sizes.

tired. How about we put our stuff in my car first, then we go grab a meal? There are quite a few restaurants around here.”
“Alright then.”
After putting down the things, the two went to the restaurant.
Aurora was enthusiastic throughout, even introducing Roxanne to delicious food, just like a considerate best friend.
After they had ordered their food, Aurora looked at Roxanne somewhat sheepishly and said, “Roxanne, there’s something I want to tell you.”
With a puzzled look, Roxanne asked, “What?”
“Actually… my relationship with your brother wasn’t very good. I liked him, but it seemed like he was still stuck in his past relationship. I wanted to develop feelings with him, but I never got the chance…”
Roxanne looked puzzled, “How could this be? My brother doesn’t like you, why would he be engaged to you?”
At Roxanne’s puzzled gaze, Aurora’s face stiffened for a moment before she said, “You should also know that your brother’s biological father is a business tycoon in Haseton. That tycoon is a good friend of my father, and he wanted to match us up. I don’t know how your brother agreed to the engagement.”
At this point, she couldn’t help but bite her lower lip.
“I originally thought that after getting engaged to your brother, we could slowly cultivate our feelings for each other. But your brother has always been very cold towards me, every time I tried to get close to him, it didn’t work… I really don’t know what to do…”
Roxanne took a sip of her drink, “So… you want me to help you create an opportunity for you two to be alone?”
Aurora hadn’t expected the other party to be so cooperative. She felt a surge of joy inside, but still put on a hesitant facade.
“If it’s too much trouble for you, then forget it… I can think of other ways.”
“I promised you!”
Aurora pretended to look at her in shock, her eyes full of joy, “Really? Roxanne, are you really willing to help me?!”
Roxanne nodded, “Of course, you are my brother’s fiancée, we will be family in the future. Who else would I help if not you? If I had known about my brother’s engagement, I would have asked him to bring you along for dinner when I returned to the country yesterday!”
“Roxanne, thank you!” Aurora grasped her hand, her face full of excitement.
Roxanne quietly withdrew her hand. her smile deepening a bit, “No need to thank me, it’s what I should do. I’ll find a way for you two to meet alone. But whether you can win my brother over, that’s up to you.”
“Um, as long as you can figure out a way for me to be alone with him, I will definitely seize the opportunity and make him fall in love with me!”
Watching Aurora’s confident expression, Roxanne said, “Hmm, I believe you can definitely succeed!”This belongs © NôvelDra/ma.Org.
